With severe weather events becoming more frequent and more

extreme, it is more important than ever that New Yorkers are

prepared for disasters. The NY Citizen Preparedness Training

Program teaches residents to have the tools and resources to

prepare for any type of disaster, respond accordingly and recover as

quickly as possible to pre-disaster conditions. The training course

will provide an introduction to responding to a natural or man-

made disaster. Participants will be advised on how to properly

prepare for any disaster, including developing a family emergency

plan and stocking up on emergency supplies.
